Information

This is a small program for creating a html web page with details on every single bait you have installed in fishing simulator 2.

Downloading and importing add-on's from the Internet

To download and import addons from the Internet normally requires that you have a program to "unzip" files. Files available for download on the Internet are commonly "zipped", in English, this means they are "squashed" to make them as small as possible, to reduce download times. You will need a program to unzip these files on your computer after you have downloaded them, Winzip is a good choice here and available for everyone to use.

After downloading an addon you must extract the files to the fishing simulator 2 folder on your computer. This is the place you installed the game to ( probably c:\program files\fishsim2 ), after doing that, when you run fishing simulator, press the Options button on the main menu, then click the Advanced tab, then click the Import addon button. You will then see a list of addons available to import in JR2 files, click on the addon you want to import, then confirm you want to do it, and that's it.

This is a very brief description of downloading and importing addons, however, Derek Shaw has written a more detailed page on the process. Click here to view it


Instructions on using baithook

After importing this addon, a file called baithook.exe will be placed into your fishing simulator 2 folder. Note : After importing the addon, this file should be virus checked before running it. The files hosted on fishsim.net are always checked for viruses using two different checkers, but executable files should always be checked after downloading them.

To run the program simply double click on the baithook icon in the fishing simulator 2 folder, this will then scan every single bait installed and produce a web page in the HTML folder of fishing simulator 2 called,

for record catches and generate a file in the main fishing simulator 2 folde, called baithook.htm.

Warning, if there are a lot of baits installed, this file could be very large and also baithook will take a while to generate it.

After the page has been generated by the program it can be viewed with a web browser like Internet Explorer and will produce an entry like below for each bait :

Name Type Sizes Hook 1pc small Hook 1pc large Hook 5pcs sml Hook 5pcs Large
Luncheon meat Processed 5 14 10 10 6

This table shows the ideal hook sizes for different quantities and sizes of each bait used.
